Now brainstorming: one Christmas in the Shenandoah brings the blizzard of a lifetime for my character Georgia...and the love of a lifetime?

New Il-2 Sturmovik video:
Flying the proposed 'high-speed' Messerschmitt Me 262 HG II with 35 degree swept wings and a v-tail against the pre-production Lockheed YP-80 Shooting Star (which was later put into production as the United States' first operational jet fighter).
Intense jet dogfight which ended in me having to run away and make an emergency landing!

New Il-2 Sturmovik video:
What if WW2 had continued into 1946?
This scenario pits the Soviet MiG-9 (I-300) against the German Me 262 HG II (a planned derivative of the operational Me 262 jet fighter that was never put into production).
I'll be honest, my opponent had the advantage in terms of energy and agility and I was very lucky to survive this encounter! The large calibre cannon on the MiG-9 were very useful...

About to read #Everfair by #NisiShawl. I was intrigued by the premise of an alternate history where people in the #Congo had advanced technology to resist the #Belgian occupiers. Will update y'all if it's good.

The #punks had it right. This ain't no future. This must be some badly written, fucked up alternate history.

«Es gibt keinen grossen Geschichtsplan»
In der kontrafaktischen Geschichtsschreibung wird auf seriöse Weise darüber spekuliert, was geschehen wäre, wenn bestimmte historische Ereignisse nicht oder anders eingetroffen wären. Gespräch mit dem Historiker Lucas Burkart über den Sinn solcher Alternativszenarien.

The Illyrian armorials are a fraud or alternate history (depending on how you look at it) made c.1590 by Petar Ohmučević, an admiral of the Spanish navy. It shows the heraldry of the fictitious Illyrian Empire, based on the short-lived empire of Stefan IV Dušan (this one is Stefan's particularly).
His family ended up in Spain after the Ottoman conquest of the Balkans and for legal reasons had to prove 16 noble great-greats to be noble himself. So this happened.
Bad sleeping gives weird creativity?
I would love to see an actual mock-up (in model form, or computer render) of what the proposed Amtrak X2000 for the Acela would have looked like.
But no, can only find images of what the borrowed X2000 from Sweden looked like when doing PR-runs in the US.

Heya! Let's go for #introductions, shall we? I'm Domus Vocis, a furry author & writer who has an addiction for storytelling within the fandom. If I'm not writing furry fiction--both SFW and pure erotic smut--I'll be writing #dystopian fiction, #SciFi, #Fantasy, #gayromance, #horror, #adult fiction, #alternatehistory, and other genres.
Mostly furry though. 📚
You can find me on sites such as Twitter (for now), SoFurry, FurAffinity, and Patreon, where I like to post my content. Check it out if you're a furry reader. :)

"Cryogenic medical spa". The very phrase is evocative. Why, in a spacefaring alternate history, would there be one on Saturn? Why would women desperate to lose weight go there? Well, find out...and enjoy the ride.

No one said the first Moon landing wouldn't be hard, but "dead-stick re-entry by sextant through ice-encrusted windows" hard? That's a whole new level of adventure; experience it in my novella "Wings of Fire".

My character Fia is going to Southern California, and since she's in an alternate history that means it's time for some heady worldbuilding!

Along with the German #ATAT I needed the other side - and as I was going for a #Stalingrad theme, I selected the USSR.
Honestly tho? If I was starting again, I would've selected a Russian AT-AT and Ukrainian rebel forces. Ah, the benefit of hindsight, eh? 🤷♂️

What if: North America ended up more fragmented, with the likes of an independent Texas and Oregon, borders being more along watershed lines?
Read a little scenario at my #blog: https://www.adamasnemesis.com/2023/07/15/some-alternate-borders-for-north-america/
This post's featured image is the borders I created, based on a North American watershed map.

A couple of new entries up on the world-building blog, including one covering my re-skin of the Project Adam diagram posted the other day and this one for the fantasy Cepheus Engine setting.

For the first trip into space in the alternate history, I'm using Project Adam as a model. This was actually von Braun's idea immediately post-Spuntnik for a stunt using a Redstone. It would have hucked a lone crewmember on a suborbital arc and snatch the "first man in space" away from the Soviets. The British R.1 I posted the other day is a smaller but otherwise comparable to a Redstone, and our European space program is very interested in the propaganda boost, so up he goes.
